On August 12, 2016, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) announced that it is continuing its orders with respect to the dumping of Flat Hot-rolled Carbon and Alloy Steel Sheet and Strip originating in or exported from Brazil, the People’s Republic of China and Ukraine and the subsidizing of these goods originating or exported from India.
Concurrently the President of the Canada Border Service Agency (CBSA) has determined that the expiry of the orders is unlikely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of Flat Hot-rolled Carbon and Alloy Steel Sheet and Strip originating in or exported from Taiwan and India. The CITT is therefore rescinding its orders with respect to dumping of the above goods when originating in or exported from Taiwan or India.
Importers should note that subject goods originating in or exported from India continue to attract countervailing duty.
The subject goods include Flat hot-rolled carbon and alloy steel sheet and strip, including secondary or “non-prime” material, in various widths from 3/4″ (19 mm) and wider, and for products in coil form, in a thickness of 0.054″ to 0.625″ (1.37 mm to 15.875 mm) inclusive; for products that are cut-to-length, in a thickness of 0.054″ up to but not including 0.187″ (1.37 mm up to but not including 4.75 mm).”
The subject goods are usually classified under the following 10-digit HS classification numbers:
